A suspension device includes a spring, a jack, a reservoir chamber which reserves the oil, a first pump, a second pump an opening and closing unit. The second pump is configured to cause the oil to flow into the housing chamber and to cause the oil to flow out from the housing chamber.

Provided is a vehicle capable of suppressing an increase in weight. A vehicle includes an air suspension device (pneumatic apparatus), an accumulator, and an air pump. Compressed air is supplied to the air suspension device. The accumulator stores compressed air to be supplied to the air suspension device. The air pump is driven by a relative movement between a vehicle body and wheels, and generates compressed air to be stored in the accumulator.

The invention relates to a hydraulic system for controlling or regulating a hydraulic cylinder comprising—at least one hydraulic cylinder, at least one hydraulic unit by means of which the hydraulic cylinder can be optionally connected to a pressure source and a tank and at least one control or regulating device for controlling or regulating the supply of hydraulic fluid to the hydraulic cylinder, the control or regulating device forms a first assembly and the hydraulic unit forms a second assembly which are structurally separate from one another and fluidically connected, wherein the supply of hydraulic fluid to the hydraulic cylinder can be predominantly controlled or regulated by the control or regulating device from outside the hydraulic unit and wherein the hydraulic unit is rigidly fastened on the hydraulic cylinder.

A vehicle wheel suspension has a hydraulic adjustment system for the base of a support spring provided between a wheel-guide component and the vehicle structure. The suspension includes a piston pump which is driven via a relative movement of the vehicle structure in relation to a wheel-guiding component and intended for conveying hydraulic medium through a return valve into a hydraulic chamber provided at the spring base, as well as a pressurized compensation volume for providing hydraulic medium. Preferably, the piston pump has a pump cylinder and a pump piston guided such that it can move relative to the former and a return channel connected to the hydraulic chamber feeds into the pump cylinder in such a way that the feed opening is blocked or released by the pump piston in a position-dependent manner, wherein hydraulic medium can flow via the released feed opening, out of the hydraulic chamber, through the pump cylinder and into the compensation volume.

A suspension system for a vehicle includes a knuckle defining a bore therethrough. The suspension system includes a wheel hub rotatably mounted on the knuckle. Further, the suspension system includes an axle at least partially received within the bore of the knuckle and operatively coupled to the wheel hub. The suspension system includes a pump driven by the axle and configured to generate pressurized fluid. The suspension system includes an actuator receiving pressurized fluid from the pump.
